[What's Up With Six? - KV5SIX @whatsupwithsix]

This is my Valentine’s Day gift to my wife... @KR5SIX . 📷

When we got married in 2001, she had already picked a commercial song for our first dance. What she didn’t know was that I was secretly writing her a song instead. For weeks before the wedding, the band and I met to get the sound exactly right — and then I surprised her with it at the reception as our first dance as husband and wife.

Back then, writing was just something I did all the time. Poems, little songs… I’ve even had multiple greeting cards published over the years. Life got busy, and somewhere along the way I stopped writing for a long time.

This year I came back to it.

The song is called “Through the Fire.” And if you watch the video, here’s the point of reference: it’s about the way she has stood beside me through the hardest chapters of my life — multiple bouts of cancer, and the spinal injury that brought years of paralysis events and left me with neurological issues ever since.

It’s not an anniversary post. It’s a Valentine. A love letter. A thank-you for being the person who doesn’t flinch, doesn’t leave, and somehow still brings the best outta me.

And just to be clear: the lyrics are 100% mine. I used A.I. to help shape the sound and vibe I was hearing in my head, but every word came straight from me.

There is a war against your health you don't know about.
Big-food wants to feed you junk for profit and big-pharma wants to treat the diseases the junk causes for profit.
You are the sheep stuck in the middle, getting fleeced by everyone, and your government is fine with this arrangement.
The people telling you to eat real food to protect your health are now called Mis-influencers and are in danger of being canceled.
No one is coming to save you or your family. It's up to you...

Elon Musk on Charlie Kirk

Charlie was someone who believed in dialogue & open debate. He was a man of ideas. He was a man of peace & now he has been murde*ed in cold blo*d. He was kil*ed bec his words made a difference. He was showing people the light & he was kil*ed by the dark

@GregAbbott_TX I has to begin in the home. Parents have to change before they can raise childen who value human life. Children who believe its not ok to celebrate a death.

@N1_OscarGrouch I understand your dilemma.

[What's Up With Six? - KV5SIX @whatsupwithsix]

If you're into Meshtastic, LoRa, APRS, or anything RF that depends on line of sight, check out https://t.co/lUu2L6UsPV. It’s a super useful (and free) tool that shows you what your antenna can see — and what can see you.

Click New Panorama, enter your location (or lat/lon), give the point a quick name (it requires a title), and adjust the elevation if you're on a mast, roof, or second floor. Then hit Submit. The red fog shows your actual LOS coverage — everything your antenna can see and be seen by.

One of the coolest features: you can save multiple panoramas and then plot the line of sight between them. It’s perfect for checking potential links between nodes, finding relay spots, or verifying if two locations can talk to each other before you even set up gear.

It's kind of addictive once you start comparing sites. If you’re building out a mesh or trying to plan for real range, this tool is gold.

If you’ve got other tools like this in your kit, I’d love to hear about them.

@N1_OscarGrouch Nice! That's quite a road trip! I tried to getcha, but no luck.

[KR5SIX - Ranae @KR5SIX]

@goodgame_K5ATA I dont use gloses to chop the hot jalpeno or serrano. The first time I tried that with habanero, my hands buned for hours. Stupid mistake.

[KR5SIX - Ranae @KR5SIX]

@goodgame_K5ATA They are wonderful smoked! They also compliment my mixture of dehydrated/ground jalapeno and serrano. Vern sprinkles it on everything!
